we'll have to see how and if she re-engages in politics and whether she's better at it the next time around than she was when she lost to barack obama. >> that's why it is such hard and personal question. the vice president of the united states, joe biden, would be a formidable contender. he would be the oldest man. hillary clinton is just behind him. there is an age question, a health question. if you look at rest of the field, no offense to governor cuomo or o'malley or hickenlooper or anybody else out there, they're not in hillary clinton's league. when they come to her in six months or 18 months and say here is the data, we can raise the money, she has to make such an intensely personal decision, do i want to get back to being so popular on a bipartisan basis around the world, not just the country, to being that polarizing figure again. think how important she's been in the last two democratic administrations. one was her husband's. he would not have been president. the gennifer flowers scandal might have brought him down if she wouldn't have stood by him. she was critical to him

sometimes in politics, the best way to do that is to run against the federal government. that's the honest truth. >> john avlon, margaret hoover, thank you very much. >> thanks, victor. >>> president obama may be facing a high stakes supreme court battle because a federal appeals court unanimously ruled today that president obama's recess appointments to a federal agency are unconstitutional. the president named three people to the national labor relations board during congress' winter holiday break a year ago. they were former deputy labor secretary sharon block, attorney richard griffin, and attorney terrence flynn. now, today, a three-judge federal panel said those appointments are invalid because the senate was only in recess and technically still in session. let's bring in legal analyst jeffrey toobin. jeffrey, there are so many questions here. first, let's start with what is the next move? >> well, he will either ask the full appeals court to hear it, or go directly to the supreme court. you know, this is a very technical legal issue. but when you cut through the go
